Had a very disturbed night where
I kept waking up and thinking about Liam (the homeless person I spoke to at the
bus stop) and my reaction to him. I
don’t know why I found it so disturbing.
Maybe because it brought into question what I am doing with my
life. I know I cannot solve all the
world’s problems and I feel I am doing the best I can in one sphere – food and
farming. But sometimes it doesn’t feel
practical enough or that I am making any impact at all. Then when faced with an individual needing
help I didn’t give him what he really needed which was money. I had the money in my purse and I didn’t give
it to him. I had a strong instinctive
feeling not to, given that it general I do not feel it really solves the
problem. He did, however, seem to have
compelling reasons for needing a specific amount of money right then.
Gas man came around to fix the
new meters and later I did the cooking.
All day I have been feeling very, very tired.
The picture is of Winterton and
reminds me of how the world goes on however I’m feeling.
